Peyrassol
Château Rouge
Symbolic of the domaine, the Château Peyrassol blend as created 20 years ago. Derived from a selection of old vines (at least 45 years old) growing at altitude in the domaine’s clay and limestone soil, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah flourish to superb effect.
The fruit selected for the Château wines comes from the oldest part of the estate, the two hills — called the Colline and Poucabana areas, vines with at least 45 years of age. This 100% estate wine offers the purest expression of a great Provencal terroir.

Deep in color with purple highlights, this wine offers an expressive nose of spice and ripe red and black fruits. The palate is ripe and well-balanced, with refined tannins, soft acidity, and flavors of red berries, blackberry, and spice through the persistent finish.
